I am in the process of joining the AF Reserves as a Flight Nurse. I made initial contact with the healthcare recruiter in July/08. I have had an interview with the Unit Commander and completed the physical. 2 months have gone by and I still do not have any concrete word. From the little I have read on this site, this is not all that unusual.
Wondering if anyone out there has anything to offer on this topic, as well as any recent experience/anecdotes on Flight School or Survival School. I am new to the military and feel like I am stumbling through the dark to find info.
i went to the base commander yesterday and she gave me a sheet of paper outlining the training days. Water and combat survival stated 38 days. she said that this had recently changed. is that not correct? or is there 19 days of other stuff you are training for? please help this is one of my biggest concerns as i have heard the worst horror stories.

Just FYI anyone else reading this: Maxwell is in Montgomery AL, and it''s HOT there most of the year. Just so you know summer starts in April and goes till Oct. The cooler weather makes for an easier officer's training time. San Antoino in the summer is the pits, but I made it thru flight school iin July and Aug., so it Can be done. LOL
